-Q 1 DEPARTMENT CDF MUSIC Music is an important element in education and not a mere pleasant pastime. A knowledge of classical music is considered one of the essentials of a well- rounded education. The School of Music has a threefold purpose: first, to provide a thorough, comprehensive course for those wishing to become teachers, or to give a definite background for a professional career, second, to offer to students courses so arranged that they may be combined with the complete literary course in the college, and third, to give to the college and community the cultural advantages which the School of Music offers in its various phases. The Music Department, under the direction of C. james Velie, is interested in giving the student body an opportunity to participate in music. The various choral and instrumental groups are made available to those interested in this type of musical activity. With the ever-increasing problem of leisure time, music is becoming an important factor in community life. The Music Department wishes to so enrich the lives of the student body that they may not only more fully appreciate the beautiful in music, but may- also be able to participate in its performance.

if DEPARTMENT CF PHYSICAL SCIENCE The division of Physics, under Dr. Hake, offers the student an oppor- tunity to gain practical scientific knowledge. The student who majors in this division not only learns his subject matter, but learns methods of teaching physics which will aid him in his work. The pre-engineering student will find that the department offers him excellent preparatory courses. Mr. M. W. Wilson of the Division of Chemistry has planned his courses so as to serve not only those who wish to major or minor in chemistry, but those also who need courses in this division to supplement work in Home Economics or as requirements for pre-medical work. The division offers a four-year undergraduate course in chemistry. The field of geography in the Physical Science Department offers work which reveals some of Natures work in general geology and climatology. The courses are fundamental to work in economic human geography. The geography problems are planned to give the student wider visions of life and aid him to interpret responses to life's environment.
